Mapping of Chemical Science Research in India During 2005 - 2014

Abstract

The present article aims to analyze the scientometric parameters for Indian Chemical Science literature. The paper analyses publications as reflected in Web of Science (WOS) database for the period 2005 to 2014 for identifying the scientometrics analysis of India in Chemical Science literature. It also gives a comparative evaluation and performance of different types of scientometric indicators. The publications in terms of quantitative aspects of publications, growth rate, doubling time collaboration and productive journals of Indian chemical science has increased exponentially in recent years.
